Fandom: Dear Remix Redux Author

I am so busy I am using the same letter I wrote last year, with only a little bit of a tweak. (I did manage to hit 500 words on the remix I'm writing, which is good.)

Dear Remix Author,

Have fun! Don't stress!

No, really. I like remixes which take chances and which maybe the remix author worries isn't really a remix. I like remixes which take a ficlet or a drabble and turn it into something layered and longer and lovely. I like remixes which show me the characters I've written from a different character's point of view. I like remixes which take my story and show me the bigger story into which it fits.

Basically? I just like remixes. As long as you have fun writing it, I'm going to love it. Promise.

You received these in your assignment email, I'm sure, but just in case, technical details:

You can find my fic on LJ or DW under the fic tag under fic: [fandom]. I've not tested all of DW to make sure everything is properly tagged, so LJ is your best bet there. The LJ version of escritoireazul has The Collected Works of Escritoireazul: A-F and G-Z. This is updated fairly frequently and is probably the most current collection of my fic.

You have a list of previous remixes written (though one of them was for the Remus Remix and I'm not sure if that's eligible or not for remixing now, since it was a remix of a drabble written specifically for the Remus Remix), but also you should know that "Queertet Revisited" is technically a remix written with a coauthor who isn't participating and is therefore off-limits. Also, I've just realized that I can't remember if I listed "Four Things Adam Banks Didn't Do At His Reunion (the will he won't he remix)" as a remix, because it was written for the Mighty Ducks Butterly Ficathon, not Remix, but it is still a remix.

I love werewolves and women doing awesome things and crossovers and apocalypses and women from other fandoms becoming Slayers and girl slash and Fast and the Furious, particularly Letty/Dom and Letty/Mia, and I've written in something like 40 fandoms, depending on how you count them, so have fun!

Yeah, basically the only thing I had to add to this was the Collected Works link. Oh, and change the number of fandoms in which I've written, because apparently I added 10 fandoms last year. Who knew? (Probably me, when I did my end of the year fic round-up, but I'd forgotten already.)

I love Remix, have I mentioned that? It's my second favorite fic time of the year. (The first favorite is Yuletide.) I'm a little nervous about whether what I'm writing actually is a remix and not just one of my fics, but I'll make it work.
